May 26, 2025; Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA; Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (8), forward Chet Holmgren (7) and guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (2) talk to the media after defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves in game four of the western conference finals for the 2025 NBA Playoffs at Target Center.

Looking back at when the Thunder recruited Hartenstein originally turned out to be a showcase for how much the team wanted the Houston product. Hartenstein became a key rotational piece for Oklahoma City and even a starter for some time, which led to an extra level of versatility, something the team envisioned when trying to sign him.

MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander added 31 points as the Oklahoma City Thunder moved one win from a title by beating the Indiana Pacers 120-109 in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
